PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: cumulative daily weekday scores for two weeks

Population: One panelist terminated treatment on Day 2. Her scores were carried over and the analysis was based on Intention to Treat (ITT).

Cumulative daily weekday scores for two weeks on Expert Grader Assessments: Dryness (0-8, none-deep)and Erythema (0-8, none-severe) and Self-Assessments: Burning/Stinging (0-3, none-severe) and Itching (0-3, none-severe)

Outcome measures

Outcome measures
Measure
Adapalene
n=25 Participants
Adapalene facial gel was applied daily to one side of the face of all subjects in a split-face model. On weekdays during the two-week trial, the investigator scored Erythema on a scale of 0 (none) to 8 (severe) and Dryness on a scale of 0 (none) to 8 (deep). Also on weekdays during the two-week trial, subjects performed a self-assessment of Burning/stinging and Itching, which were scored on a scale of 0 (none) to 3 (severe).
Tretinoin
n=25 Participants
Tretinoin facial gel was applied daily to the opposite side of the face of all subjects in a split-face model. On weekdays during the two-week trial, the investigator scored Erythema on a scale of 0 (none) to 8 (severe) and Dryness on a scale of 0 (none) to 8 (deep). Also on weekdays during the two-week trial, subjects performed a self-assessment of Burning/stinging and Itching, which were scored on a scale of 0 (none) to 3 (severe).
